I like this entry. Well done, Norway. And this isn't a copy of Eric Saade. In fact, Tooji's not trying to be Eric anyway.

The next person who claims he's a copy of Eric Saade I'll shoot xD Seriously.. Look at how many women in a nice dress singing ballads there are EACH year. Why are they not copies? Just because he has the same style doesn't make him a copy. The songs are also very different. And as far as I know Eric and Tooji are good friends, so please stop to make a point of this :?

Tired claim. We already got that. For some people, Tooji is a wannabe, etc, etc. The point is: Tooji ain't copying Saade; he's improving Saade. ;)
And since Saade was s***, Tooji's, at best, half a s***. Still s***.

There are different ways to present a ballad (which is a very broad term and can include anything from slow love songs to mid-tempo slice of life stories). There are different ways to present a pop song.

And then there's the Eric Saade/Tooji way:
* Mediocre vocals (somehow, Tooji is even worse than Saade)
* Lots and lots of flashy dancing to mask the mediocre vocals
* Young ethnic("Eastern")-looking man who's allegedly/ostensibly attractive
* Lots of backup singing in the chorus to mask the mediocre vocals
* Sex ("You're making me hot" vs. "I'm gonna get you girl")
* Love song to a girl
* Leather (black vs. red)
* Young, hip clothes (leather)
* A last prolonged (out of tune) note after the bridge

The songs are even similar in composition. Typical Schlager-pop with a shiny coat to mask the obvious Schlagerness of it all.

I can see this song outside of my top 10 until May. It is still there, but every time I listen to it, I like it less....

Same here. This song is super catchy an I loved it at first but I don't see myself listening to this song after a few months.

Yes, but that's with most of the songs this year. And any other year I guess. The esc songs doesn't usually have a long life span (except for with esc fans)

I am already very bored with Loreen and I loved it at first. The majority of the voters will have never heard the songs before so it doesn't really matter.

I think you will be affected of this song again after semi final show. Or closer time, after official video?
